User Reviews

Users praise the bulbs and app for color control and features, but recurring issues with unstable connectivity, difficult pairing, and unreliable software undermine the experience. Support quality and routine reliability are commonly cited problems, with some devices failing after extended use.
Pros
  • Bulbs themselves are high quality and capable; worth the cost for features like zoning and multi-room control.
  • The app provides robust color control and scheduling, enabling rich lighting scenes when it works.
  • App updates and ongoing improvements are appreciated by users.
Cons
  • Frequent disconnects and unstable connectivity, with lights flashing or not responding and requiring resets.
  • Cumbersome pairing/setup (QR code from the box, manual Wi‑Fi pairing) and problematic HomeKit integration.
  • Poor or inconsistent customer support and frequent software bugs.
  • Routines and schedules often fail to function correctly.
  • Reliability issues where devices stop working after months or fail to reconnect after outages.

how dare you add advertisements to the app with such an obnoxiously small close button and no other way to dismiss it. looks like I’ll be buying new light bulbs now.

They were fantastic when I installed these lights, 4 strips for outdoor under the porch eaves. But, one day they just stopped responding. I reset, turned off and on 5 times, push the reset button, I turn my internet off and on, I do the Hokey Pokey and I turn myself around and still doesn’t connect.

i don’t know if all of the company decided to quit or what happened here but these lights don’t work anymore. disconnect genuinely every single day and i am so sick of having to constantly reset them. also so sick of their lack of customer support it’s actually insane if you’re gonna charge this much for a light bulb & have an entire APP why do you not have a better customer support team it makes 0 sense. wish i could get a refund but i spent too long giving the lights a second (and third and forth and fifth) chance. don’t waste your money
